Chapter 96 Recruiting Spirits(1/2)
It's hard to imagine that Romaniel's army could be so powerful.
Since the beginning of the war, the Odin people seem to have been losing their own land. Except for the battles outside the Fimir Fortress, the Odin Empire has won very few battles, and the domestic situation has become increasingly tense.
sensitive.
In recent days, most of the apprentices have no intention of going to class anymore and are all discussing things about the war. Most of the students who come from noble backgrounds are more or less familiar with the battle report of Odin being beaten by Romaniel on the battlefield.
Although wizards are almost all members of the Magician Alliance, they cannot completely abandon the world and pursue the ultimate in magic wholeheartedly. They also have their own families and relatives, and even their political stances are the same.
Andrea, who is the president of the Royal Academy of Magic, is not from Odin. On the contrary, her hometown is in the south. She came to the north only because of the joint decision of the Magic Association.
Odin Royal Academy of Magic was jointly established by the Alliance of Magicians and the Royal Court of Odin. The president of the Academy is not a simple identity. In fact, the real status of this identity in the north is actually the general person in charge of the Northern Branch of the Alliance of Mages.
So Andrea is not a spell caster belonging to the Odin Empire.
Andrea doesn't care how the Odin Empire was beaten violently. As one of the chief ceremonial officers of the Magic Council, casual participation in the war between the two countries will cause big problems, so even if she has a good relationship with the Odin Court
, she could only watch with cold eyes.
However, what she was told today gave her other ideas.
"The chief spellcaster of the royal court was killed?!"
Andrea expressed doubts about the authenticity of this news. You must know that the chief mage of the royal court is an archmage who has reached level 8, even though he is far inferior to her (sometimes the gap is even greater for the same level).
But an eighth-level spellcaster is difficult to kill.
"Yes, death is a bit strange."
When the black shadow next to Andrea talked about this incident, it was obvious that he still couldn't accept it.
"It's curse magic..."
"Is there any black magician on Romaniel's side?"
"For now...it's not clear yet."
Black magicians are a school of magic that cannot be recognized and accepted by orthodox mages. They practice magic in a way that desecrates life and destroys balance. In the Irish mainland, they are the kind of street rats that everyone calls for beating.
"Romaniel shouldn't have the guts to violate the magical convention, right?"
The Magic Convention clearly states that no force is allowed to support or study black magic. Violators will bear the consequences at their own risk!
"What level of curse can actually kill an eighth-level archmage?"
This situation is undoubtedly the most incredible thing in Andrea's opinion. Even curse magic cannot escape the fluctuations of the magic network. It is difficult to use curse magic to kill a spellcaster of the level of the chief of the royal court.
"It seems that it is necessary to investigate... In addition, this matter should be reported to the old guys in Gudlis immediately, so that they can also get busy."
Andrea rubbed her forehead and continued: "I always feel that something special will happen recently. I don't know if it has any connection with this incident."
"It's been such a troubled time."
After the black shadow sighed, he quickly turned into a shadow bird and disappeared into the room...
………
Andrea had to say that this was really physical work.
But luckily she brought one with her
A coolie who wants to be commanded.
Behind her, Ivan, who was carrying large and small bags, was sweating profusely under the "caress" of the sun.
"No, I said, why don't you put these crappy things in the space ring?"
"No! There aren't that many reasons why. Anyway, if it doesn't work, it just won't work!"
It's not that Andrea can't explain why it's so troublesome, it's just that she doesn't think Ivan needs to know for the time being.
"You didn't say anything...you just dragged me to do such a hard thing. If I didn't trust you, it would be an exaggeration to say that you deliberately harassed me."
"Then just think that I'm teasing you."
Ivan was speechless. This old witch always spoke with thorns, and she was just trying to choke him.
Come on, you can't beat them anyway, and your body has done some things to others that are unreasonable to this day, so just do it as a coolie.
To make a digression from Ivan, in fact, every time he thinks about what happened that night, he always feels a chill. The reason is that he still doesn't believe Andrea's age.
He claims to be twenty-six years old and looks fourteen years old, even his physical development is like this! This is very strange to anyone! I heard that some old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years also like to fixate their appearance when they were young.
He felt that Andrea was very likely to be this kind of person.
"what are you thinking about?"
An unkind gaze made Ivan's body tremble.
"No, it's nothing...hehe..."
Ivan said with a sneer.
Andrea was sure that Ivan definitely didn't mean anything good, and he probably planned it in her mind. But for the time being, she didn't want to argue with this guy. Anyway, she would have plenty of time in the future.
Collecting the magic remnants left in the magic net is not a simple matter even for Andrea. The murderer's methods are also very clever. It may be difficult to detect anything without the help of props.
What we need to rely on later is that the "thing" on Ivan's back cannot be put into the space ring. Dimensional magic will have an irreversible impact on it. This is one of the reasons why teleportation is not used.
In short, with the help of free labor, we finally arrived at Odin's Royal Court. Andrea also informed the Royal Court in advance that she would come to investigate the "murder of the chief mage" today. The Royal Court naturally agreed. After all,
They were also eager to know the cause of the chief's death.
After all, it is too unbelievable for an eighth-level mage to die under a "curse magic".
The chief mage's room is still the same, and no one has touched anything here since the mage's death was discovered.
Andrea kicked the others out, leaving only Ivan in the room to help.
She looked at the guy next to her who was still stunned, so she stretched out her leg and kicked Ivan.
"Why are you dazed?"
"This this……"
"What do you want to say?"
"Odin's chief mage is dead... dead?!"
"Nonsense, did you just react?"
Ivan still couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. The chief mage of the Odin Empire, one of the few powerful people in the mainland, actually died like this?
"What's so surprising? Everyone dies, even legends."
Ivan calmed down and asked, "What should I do now?"
"Just help me protect you."
What Andrea actually wanted to say was, "You stand there for now.
Just don't move here." I also felt that it was too ruthless and would hurt this guy's confidence. After all, he would be needed later.
Andrea's wand looks taller than her, and its overall color is purple. Just by holding it in her hand, a special stream of light is spinning. Its name is "Endless Secret", and it is a real legendary wand.
Ivan looked at Andrea's wand with envy, wondering when he would be able to use a legendary wand.
With the injection of magic power, the aura of "Endless Secret" shone brighter and brighter. Just getting slightly closer, the wind pressure of magic power pouring out of Andrea made Ivan breathless.
After just a moment, Andrea stopped emitting magic power, and the legendary wand "Endless Secret" returned to peace again.
"Did you find anything?"
"One thing, but the murderer's methods are very clever. All I found were traces that were of little use."
"What should we do?"
"Don't worry, I have expected this situation for a long time, and this is what I asked you to come here for." Andrea said with a smile.
"Wait...wait a minute, why didn't I know there was such a thing?!"
Ivan took two steps back in fear. Andrea always had this expression every time she used him as a guinea pig, so he turned around, opened the door and wanted to run.
But as soon as he opened the door, before he could rush out, two sword blades overlapped and blocked him. When Ivan looked, there were two knights standing outside the door, blocking his escape route.
"Stop struggling, I'll try my best to make it less painful for you."
"You are simply a devil! Let me out! I don't want to do anything weird!"
"coward!"
Andrea looked at Ivan with disdain.
"I don't need you anymore. Just help me untie the things you carried."
"real?"
"hurry up!"
"okay."
Ivan didn't mind Andrea's arrogant instructions, but opened his backpack excitedly, as long as he was not allowed to take risks.
In addition to some mysterious magic props, Andrea asked Ivan to pack a large number of magic materials.
